HOUSTON - eTradeWire -- In the heart of Texas heat, one of the most dangerous forms of cancer is often quiet, painless, and hiding in places people never check. As part of Skin Cancer Awareness Month, Dr. Andrew Quinn, owner of Quinn Dermatology in Houston, Texas, is sounding the alarm on the silent spread of skin cancer in hidden zones of the body.

"Most people look at their arms, maybe their back—but skin cancer doesn't just show up where it's obvious," says board-certified dermatologist Dr. Andrew Quinn. "Some of the most dangerous melanomas are the ones we don't see until it's too late."

The Unexpected Places Skin Cancer Can Lurk:

• Under the nails
• On the scalp and behind the ears
• Between toes and on the soles of the feet
• Inside the mouth or along the eyelids
• Back of the neck or along waistbands and bra lines

With Houston's year-round sun exposure, outdoor lifestyles, and high UV index, residents are at increased risk of hidden skin damage — especially if they're skipping full-body checks.

"Here in Houston, we live outside — from baseball games to the Bayou trails. You might wear sunscreen, but if you're not checking your whole body, you're still vulnerable," says Dr. Quinn.

Annual Skin Screenings Are Vital

Early detection saves lives — and the best way to catch skin cancer before it spreads is through a yearly, full-body skin exam by a board-certified dermatologist. At Quinn Dermatology, patients across Houston and Beaumont trust Dr. Quinn for thorough, compassionate screenings that go beyond the surface.
